Pallet of bottled water, check. 10 crates of noodles, check. 50 gallons of red pasta sauce, check...err. Make that 50 gallons of fake blood. You never know when you may need to make yourself look like a zombie to avoid being overtaken by the horde. If you need some tips on that, ask our guest author Karina Halle. Welcome Karina!
Karina: Hello there! Thank you for having me. This place looks like the Olive Garden.
Lexi: Here, let me pour you a chilled glass of white wine and you can tell us a bit about your baby: Sins and Needles. Sounds like this book will deliver delicious shivers as you take us down some dark alleys. Did you work to keep the dark gritty feel consistent throughout the Artists Trilogy?
Karina: Nah, it comes pretty natural to me. Sins & Needles is set in the desert, near a place I go to a lot, Palm Springs. Coming from the tree-laden and rainwashed Pacific Northwest, I love the desert and think it has this beautiful yet tough quality to it. It’s so harsh and unforgiving, so barren and yet life goes on. I could feel the grit in the air, the sand in the teeth, on each page I wrote and it was easy to adapt my morally-questionable and edgy characters to that terrain.
